lyrics

I wish I was on yonder hill
'Tis there I'd sit and cry my fill
Until every tear would turn a mill
Is go dté tu, mo mhuirnín slán (translation: And may you go safely, my darling)

Siúil, siúil, siúil a rúin
Siúil go socar agus siúil go ciúin
Siúil go doras agus éalaigh liom
Is go dté tu, mo mhuirnín slán

I'll sell my rock, I'll sell my reel
I'll sell my only spinning wheel
To buy my love a sword of steel
Is go dté tu, mo mhuirnín slán

Siúil, siúil, siúil a rúin
Siúil go socar agus siúil go ciúin
Siúil go doras agus éalaigh liom
Is go dté tu, mo mhuirnín slán

ARABIC:
If I could be in my homeland
I'd live with love in my country
River of Blood, No don't weep
Is go dte tu mo mhuirnin slan.

If I could be in any place
You'd find me in the Land of Peace
Martyr, my love, the soul and the pain
Is go dte tu mo mhuirnin slan.
